news looks good but there is no thread on SI/RB...and it looks like a "pinkie"....Hummmmmm
Gillette Global Network, Inc. (GGN), a New York based building-centric
integrated telecommunications provider, announced today that it has completed
wiring more than 10 million square feet of commercial real estate in the New
York metropolitan area, with broadband, fiber-optic telecommunications
infrastructure capable of delivering voice, data, video, and high speed Internet
services.
GGN has an additional 30 million square feet of office space under contract and
is in the process of wiring properties in the New York area managed by major
real estate firms such as Time Equities Inc., Cohen Brothers, Jack Resnick &
Sons, GHG Realty, Olmstead Real Estate, Meyer Realty and Cammeby Real Estate
Trust.
Since its inception in 1994, GGN has provided facilities-based integrated voice
and data services to small and mid-sized businesses. GGN has become one of the
fastest growing firms in the Building Local Exchange Carrier (BLEC) services
marketplace by providing its customers with a complete array of
telecommunications solutions from voice, to data, to the Internet.
"It's clear that our experience as a full-service telecommunications provider
appeals to real estate owners who are concerned about the quality of service
that will be delivered to their tenants," says Joseph P. Gillette, president and
CEO, Gillette Global Network. "The fact that we have been delivering voice and
broadband data solutions to our customers for more than five years gives us a
solid competitive edge over the new companies that are jumping into this market
segment. Due to our Broadband Building Infrastructure Deployment System(TM), we
have the ability to quickly install bandwidth with virtually unlimited capacity,
allowing us to cost-effectively meet all the current and foreseeable future
demands of a building's commercial tenants."
Recently wired GGN buildings include: 125 Maiden Lane, a 330,000 square foot
building, 622 Third Avenue, an 850,000 square foot building, 39 Broadway, a
450,000 square foot building, 80 Broad Street, a 440,000 square foot building,
21 Penn Plaza, a 375,000 square foot building, and 750 Lexington Avenue a
350,000 square foot building. GGN is currently in the process of offering a
complete set of voice and data solutions to the tenants of these buildings.
"Our reasons for choosing GGN lie primarily in its rich history and experience
as a service provider, as well as its highly reliable and redundant
telecommunications infrastructure. As a result of our partnership with GGN,
we're able to provide our tenants with a single source for all their telecom
needs such as voice, data, video and high-speed Internet services, says Rick
Recny, asset manager of Time Equities Inc., agent for the owner of 125 Maiden
Lane.
